Vitamin C Depletion and All-Cause Mortality in Renal Transplant Recipients
Vitamin C may reduce inflammation and is inversely associated with mortality in the general population. We investigated the association of plasma vitamin C with all-cause mortality in renal transplant recipients (RTR); and whether this association would be mediated by inflammatory biomarkers. Vitamin C, high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), soluble intercellular cell adhesion molecule 1 (...
متن کاملSymmetric Dimethylarginine as Predictor of Graft loss and All-Cause Mortality in Renal Transplant Recipients
BACKGROUND Elevated symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA) has been shown to predict cardiovascular events and all cause mortality in diverse populations. The potential role of SDMA as a risk marker in renal transplant recipients (RTR) has not been investigated. METHODS We analyzed SDMA in the placebo arm of the Assessment of Lescol in Renal Transplantation study, a randomized controlled trial of ...
متن کاملNeopterin is associated with cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality in renal transplant patients
BACKGROUND Inflammatory markers show significant associations with cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality after kidney transplantation. Neopterin, reflecting interferon-γ-release, may better reflect the proinflammatory state of recipients than less specific markers. METHODS Kidney transplant recipients in the Assessment of LEscol in Renal Transplant (ALERT) trial were examined and inve...
متن کاملSerum erythropoietin level and mortality in kidney transplant recipients.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Posttransplant anemia is frequently reported in kidney transplant recipients and is associated with worsened patient survival. Similar to high erythropoiesis-stimulating agent requirements, resistance to endogenous erythropoietin may be associated with worse clinical outcomes in patients with ESRD. We examined the association between serum erythropoietin levels and mor...
متن کاملIron deficiency, anemia, and mortality in renal transplant recipients.
Anemia, iron deficiency anemia (IDA), and iron deficiency (ID) are highly prevalent in renal transplant recipients (RTR). Anemia is associated with poor outcome, but the role of ID is unknown. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the association of ID, irrespective of anemia, with all-cause mortality in RTR. Cox regression analyses were used to investigate prospective associations. In 700 RTR, pr...
